Bill Archer Dog Park Fun in Houston, Texas

My Brave and Mighty Little Chihuahua Mix Dog.... Super Max!

Max is a little social butterfly within his own extended family!!  Other than work, he goes where I go, but I like to keep him social with other pups too that he hasn't met.  Of course I always have him close by just to be sure the other pups have the same gentle nature as Max.  He can be a little shy when you first met him and a bit of a scaredy-cat in general, but I LOVE that although he'd rather sniff endlessly at the Dog Park than play for any length of time with the smaller pups...he goes right up to the fence separating the little pups from the big pups!! Go figure...does it every time we go and it cracks me up! My brave little Max...when there's a fence!!! Ha! 

My Brave Little Max :) 

I can sniff for HOURS!

Big dogs are passing by...better guard this bench!!

I could go over to the Big Dog area if I really wanted to...I just  didn't want to intimidate them! 

Ok pup-friends, see ya later!

The "Before" picture...enough said!

Always the center of attention

I AM the best pup in the world!!!

Houston Dog Park Association

This weekend was the perfect time take Max to the nearby dogpark in Houston, Texas and mingle with some other cute pups! Two even had Texans Football Jerseys on...the pups that is :) - very cute!  Houston Dog Park Association http://www.houstondogpark.org/ has a great website with all the local Dog Parks available.  You can even become a member for $20 a year. Max prefers this particular dog park and yes... I am now a member of the Houston Dog Park Association too!! Max is just working overtime on keeping me broke! 

http://www.pct3.hctx.net/parks/congressmanbillarcherpark.aspx there's even a Skate Park there for humans, (although NOT this human - I'd like to keep my broken bones to a minimum)!

Be sure to check out the Dog Park Rules! I've been there numerous times and never encountered any problems with aggressive pups but a few have, so just keep your eyes on your pup and please remember to use the potty bags that are available all over the park.  It's fun to just see all the different pups out there having a blast!
